At one in the morning, the sound of firecrackers had already faded in the city. Yun Xiang washed up, dried his hair, and went to his desk.
The cell phone was ringing and the classmates were still chatting in the group.
Yun Xiang half-bent over, opened her Moments and scrolled through them intentionally or unintentionally. When she was about to close it to blow-dry her hair, she stopped.
At midnight on the first day of the new year, my aunt posted a message on WeChat Moments.
【Cheng Ya: Happy New Year.】
What time is it? Cake has a new product, called: Miss You Raspberry Cake.
Whether the rain stops or not, the raspberry cake will always be sweet. I will bring raspberry cake to every important moment of yours.
Even if Yun Xiang's reaction was slow, she should have known that the new raspberry cake that her aunt had ordered at midnight, as well as the meaning of the raspberry cake, were all related to her.
The raspberry cake, named after her, is a love story made just for her. It's a romantic confession, a love I don't want to hide, but want to tell the whole world.
This didn't happen suddenly; it was planned long ago.
This is the New Year gift Cheng Che gave her.
Yun wanted to swallow her sobs. She wiped her hair and a tear fell from the corner of her eye. It landed on the screen of her mobile phone, staining the black and red raspberry cake.
What Cheng Che couldn't say, he told her with raspberry cake.
Yun Xiang picked up his phone and liked this post on WeChat Moments.
She quickly dried her hair and then sat down at the desk.
Yun wanted to open her diary. She looked at her father's photo and had a lot to say, but she didn't know where to start.
All she knew was that every time she opened her diary recently, she felt incredibly happy. She wasn't crying like before. She poured all her emotions into the diary.
This was everything about it, the only place she could talk.
Yun Xiang felt that it was because the Cheng family healed her that she no longer had only her father as her support.
Yun Xiang closed the diary, took a deep breath, and put it in the drawer.
Yunxiang climbed onto the bed, turned off the lights, and was about to fall asleep.
Ding—the phone lights up.
Cheng Che: Asleep?
Yun Xiang suspected that this man was monitoring her because he sent her a message just after she turned off the lights.
But someone lying in bed upstairs said it was really a coincidence. From his angle, he couldn't see whether the light in Yunxiang's room was on or off.
Yun Xiang: What?
Cheng Che: So cold.
Yun Xiang: ...slept.
Cheng Che: Even more indifferent.
Yun wanted to choke. What was this guy looking for trouble so late at night?
Thinking about Cheng Che preparing raspberry cake for her and giving her a surprise with her aunt, she tried to coax him.
Yun Xiang: Young Master, what do you want me to do?
Cheng Che: Okay, that’s perfect.
Yun Xiang: ...I really want to hit you with a hammer.
Cheng Che: Have you seen the circle of friends?
Yun Xiang: I see.
The young master of the Cheng family asked knowingly. She was sure that he saw her click the like button.
Cheng Che: Actually, I have something else to tell you.
Yun Xiang tilted his head and asked, "What did you say?"
Yun Xiang waited for a long time but received no news from Cheng Che.
But where Cheng Che's name was, it kept showing [The other party is typing].
What is he doing?
Is there anything so difficult to say?
Yunxiang bit her fingers, not in a hurry, just waiting for him to speak.
Finally, Cheng Che sent a sleepy emoticon.
Cheng Che: Good night.
Yun Xiang: Huh???
good evening?
I thought he was going to say something big, but he ended up pooping a big shit.
Yunxiang sent an emoticon of a speechless Buddha, then decisively threw away his phone and went to sleep.
Cheng Che couldn't help but smile when he saw the emoticon package sent by Yun Xiang.
The words he couldn't say remained on the dialog box.
【I hope you will always need me, like raspberry cake. 】
…
Early in the morning, Yun Xiang was awakened by the sound of firecrackers.
Yun Xiang lay on the bed and looked at his phone. It was only half past six.
She sighed inwardly: The neighbors are up so early.
Yun Xiang covered his head with the quilt when he heard the voices of several old men coming from the living room.
"Old Cheng, Happy New Year!"
"Oh! It's still the same, nothing has changed!"
"Why don't you move here tomorrow? Can we see each other more often?"
Yunxiang struggled to get up and looked outside. The gate of the yard was open.
It wasn't even completely bright outside the window yet, but the streets were already bustling with people.
The Spring Festival now has a different flavor, but the New Year in the compound really has the flavor of the New Year. Whether it is the fireworks or the popularity, it makes people feel warm.
Someone came in at the door. Yun Xiang yawned and received a text message from Cheng Che.
Cheng Che: If you can sleep, just continue sleeping. There’s no need to get up so early.
Yun Xiang: Are you awake too?
Cheng Che: Yeah.
Yunxiang lay on the bed, listening to people talking outside and chatting with Cheng Che on WeChat.
Yun Xiang: Are other people’s homes so lively too?
Cheng Che: No. Many soldiers in the compound who were once commanded by the old commander came to pay New Year's greetings to the old commander.
I see.
Yun Xiang: Have you gotten up yet?
Cheng Che: I was crazy. I woke up so early and when I went out, a bunch of people asked me about my grades and my major... I had awkward conversations with them.
Yun Xiang: Oh! A little brother with social anxiety.
Cheng Che: ...
Cheng Che's eyes went dark as he watched this. This joke was really too old.
Yun wanted to toss and turn in bed, she wanted to sleep a little longer, but she couldn't fall asleep.
Yun wanted to pick up the phone and send a message to Cheng Che.
Yun Xiang: Cheng Che, I can’t sleep.
Cheng Che: Let’s watch Douyin for a while.
Yun Xiang: Cheng Che, the raspberry cake last night was delicious.
